In a world of fame, power, and neglect, Clementine's life is a never-ending performance for her family's satisfaction. She walks on eggshells, striving to meet impossible standards imposed upon her by her fame-driven family. Her every effort to please them falls short, leading her down a path of self-loathing believing she deserves nothing more.

She finds herself blamed for her mother's death and locked away in her own family's secret prison. Tortured and on the edge of death, she emerges three years later, ready to face her unjust fate at the hands of the criminal justice system by her own family's order.

Meanwhile, Alexei, the ruthless don of the Russian mafia, thrives in his prison confines. With his power and reputation, imprisonment is mere entertainment. But when he encounters this girl everything changes.

STOLEN SMILE [ GXG ]

32 parts Ongoing Mature

She's a romantic at heart, living in the most unromantic of worlds . . . Nicknamed Sweet Abelli for her docile nature, Caterina smiles on cue and has a charming response for everything. She's the favored daughter, the perfect mafia principessa . . . or was. Now, all she can see in the mirror's reflection is blood staining her hands like crimson paint. They say first impressions are everything . . . In the murky waters of New York's underworld, Caterina's sister is arranged to marry Jennifer Melgren . A Made Woman, a boss, a cheat-even measured against mafia standards. Her reputation stretches far and wide . After her and Caterina's first encounter ends with an accidental glare on her part, she realizes she's just as rude as she is gorgeous.She doesn't like the woman or anything she stands for, though that doesn't stop her heart from pattering like rain against glass when she's near, nor the shiver that ghosts down her spine at the sound of her voice. And she's always near. Telling her what to do. Making her feel hotter than any future sister-in-law should. Caterina may be the Sweet Abelli on the outside, but she's beginning to learn she has a taste for the darkness, for rough hands, cigarettes, and whiskey-colored eyes. Having already escaped one scandal, however, she can hardly afford to be swept up in another. Besides, even if she were hers, everyone knows you don't fall in love with a Made woman . . . right?
